The University of Scranton’s campus dining options are affordable, customizable and delicious, earning it national recognition ahead of hundreds of competitors.

Scranton ranks No. 2 in Pennsylvania and No. 47 nationally on the “Best College Food in America” list published by Niche. The website, which is one of the leading platforms for information on academic institutions, evaluated 107 colleges and universities in Pennsylvania and 1,441 across the nation.

The University’s dining options include a food court on the first floor of the DeNaples Center, which has multiple stations and restaurants offering grab-and-go items and counter-service, including Starbucks, Chick-fil-A and Which Wich. There is an additional food court at Montrone Hall, as well as the Fresh Food Company, which has numerous cooking stations in an open kitchen environment on the third floor of the DeNaples Center. There is also an Einstein Bros. Bagels shop at Leahy Hall; the Provisions on Demand (POD) Market at the Weinberg Memorial Library for grab-and-go items; the DeNaples POD Market for convenience store items; Costa Coffee; a Just Baked machine; and more.

Scranton received an “A” grade from Niche in “Campus Food.”

Niche’s rankings are based on data including student reviews and meal plan costs.

“Top-ranked colleges offer outstanding on-campus dining,” Niche says on its website. “Students can easily access healthy, quality food across a wide range of cuisines and dietary preferences.”

Performance Music at The University of Scranton will welcome Relic Ensemble, an 11-piece period instrument chamber orchestra that connects with audiences through intimate, imaginative and dramatic representations of early music, on Friday, Sept. 12.

The concert begins at 7:30 p.m. in the Houlihan-McLean Center, Mulberry Street and Jefferson Avenue, downtown Scranton. Admission is free and the concert is open to the public. Seating is on a first-come, first-seated basis.

This performance, part of Relic’s fourth U.S. concert tour, will be Relic’s inaugural performance at The University of Scranton. However, some of its individual members have graced the stage of Houlihan-McLean in seasons past (including Kako Boga, “bonus daughter” of Performance Music conductor and artistic director Cheryl Y. Boga).

The tour debuts Relic’s newest program, “The Spheres,” which takes audiences on a breathtaking journey through the cosmos by bringing to life the rich mythology of the celestial spheres through works by Bach, Handel, Vivaldi and others. 

Lauded as “stylish and innovative," by New York Classical Review, Relic’s programming uses narrative “chapters” to unite a variety of repertoire into a breathtaking concert experience, capturing the hearts of new and seasoned concertgoers alike. Founded in 2022, Relic's commitment to taking early music on the road to all 50 states brings it to dozens of communities each season. Relic’s recent presenters include Chamber Music Detroit, Academy of Early Music, The Cleveland Museum of Art, Indianapolis Early Music Festival, Western Michigan University and Gotham Early Music Scene. Its current season includes performances in Ohio, Michigan, Washington, D.C., Maryland and Virginia.

Committed to sharing their passion for early music with students of all ages, Relic members have given workshops, masterclasses and side-by-side performances at numerous schools. Most recently, Relic engaged in residencies at University of Maryland, Washington International School and Kalamazoo College. Relic actively seeks community engagement opportunities, offering children’s concerts, performances in nontraditional venues and open rehearsals in many of the regions it visits.

What: In Concert: Relic Ensemble, presented by Performance Music at The University of Scranton

When: 7:30 p.m., Friday, Sept. 12

Where: Houlihan-McLean Center, Mulberry Street and Jefferson Avenue, downtown Scranton

Admission: Free

Rev. Bernard R. McIlhenny, S.J., dean of admissions emeritus, has played the Falls course at the Country Club of Scranton enough times to understand its nuances and quirks.

“There’s a little bit of a roll, right to left, around the green,” he said. “And then the green itself has a couple of different rolls.”

As Father McIlhenny hit from the tee during a round last month, he grabbed a 7-iron and swung for the green. Then, he went looking for the ball.

“The other three guys, they find their balls,” Father McIlhenny said. “But I can’t see mine.”

Father McIlhenny assumed the worst — that his ball had strayed off into the rough — but was instead greeted with the best news: his ball was in the cup.

Father McIlhenny, 99, had made a hole-in-one.

“It’s always a wonderful thing and a sheer point of luck,” he said. “That started a lot of laughing, a lot of celebration and so on. That’s been going on now for a couple days … it’s been a lot fun connecting with it and I’ve really enjoyed it honestly.”

Father McIlhenny was born in Philadelphia and attended St. Joseph’s Preparatory School, where, he said, he wasn’t much of an athletic kid.

It was at West Baden College in Indiana — about 60 miles from Louisville, Kentucky — where, from 1947-50, he started playing golf with Eddie Maloney and Jack Alexander.

“They were from the New York province and they were very good golfers, especially Father Maloney, who was the one that taught me how to play golf,” Father McIlhenny said.

Father McIlhenny has played golf ever since. This was his second career hole-in-one; the other happened in 1955 in Baltimore, Maryland.

Father McIlhenny came to Northeastern Pennsylvania in 1958 as headmaster of Scranton Preparatory School, where he served until 1966, when he was named the University’s director of admissions. He served in that role through 1997 and resides at the University’s Campion Hall.

The Schemel Forum’s University for a Day features a daylong series of talks and discussions about topics related to health, economics, history and spirituality.

The event will be held Saturday, Sept. 20, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in the Moskovitz Theater of the DeNaples Center at The University of Scranton. In addition to the usual Schemel Forum audience, the University for a Day event will be offered to youth in the area. High school students must register in advance.

“Thanks to a generous grant from Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, the first 50 high school juniors and seniors to sign up will attend the day for free,” said George J. Aulisio, Ph.D., dean of the Weinberg Memorial Library and director of the Schemel Forum.

Leading off the day is Cyrus Paul Olsen III, D.Phil., associate professor of Theology/Religious Studies, affiliate faculty member of Health Humanities at Scranton and affiliate research fellow of the Human Network Initiative at Brigham and Women’s Hospital. Dr. Olsen will present “Gorillas, Ghosts & Gods: Networks of Belonging in Africa.”

In this talk, Dr. Olsen, a longtime faculty member at Scranton and Co-PI of original research associated with the Clinical Neurology Lab at Harvard/Brigham and Women’s Hospital, will explore how diverse networks of belonging shape planetary identity, health and hope. He will share information from an international project set in Uganda where he has been part of a Clinical Neurology “dry lab” that uses social science to think about clinical, social and economic interventions in developing and maintaining healthy communities.

The title of his talk provides an entree into the topic. A key institutional partner for Dr. Olsen’s research is an award-winning hospital near the rainforest where endangered mountain gorillas live alongside growing human communities. Ghosts represent the connections some of those communities retain with their ancestors and spirits, alluding to how African spirituality connects with health-seeking behaviors in communities. And Gods looks at the connections between traditional African religion and Christianity, which came much later in that part of the world.

“Essentially we are taking a snapshot of the community as a window into the vulnerabilities of that community,” said Dr. Olsen.

Amid the “loneliness epidemic” in which we live, having a sense of belonging is key to healthy communities and people.

“We need people, community and interaction to thrive,” said Dr. Olsen.

His talk will present new research models for including neglected factors influencing global health and in places too often, such as Sub-Saharan Africa. He will also provide insight into life in Uganda and will share original video footage from his trips there.

Next, David Dzurec, Ph.D., associate provost and professor of history at the University, will present “Natives, Immigrants and Nationalism: John Bapst, the Penobscot, and the Politics of Intolerance in the Nineteenth-Century U.S.”

In 1854, Father John Bapst, a Jesuit priest, was tarred and feathered by an angry mob in Ellsworth, Maine, as part of a spate of anti-Catholic violence in the United States in the 1850s. Father Bapst’s story began years earlier as a missionary among the Penobscot Indians, where he faced deep divisions over land, leadership and religion.

In this talk, Dr. Dzurec will follow Father Bapst’s dramatic journey from revolutionary Europe to frontier Maine and will examine how life — and the violence he faced — reflected bigger struggles over immigration, religion and national identity in nineteenth-century America. Through Father Bapst’s story, participants will learn how local tensions were part of a much larger, global story.

Next will be a presentation by Anna Jaskiewicz, Ph.D., assistant professor of Economics, Finance and International Business at the University, who will discuss “Roots and Remedies for Health Disparities in the U.S.”

In her talk, Dr. Jaskiewicz will examine the social determinants underlying health disparities in the United States and explore research-driven solutions to advance health equity. Health is something almost everyone can relate to, whether through personal experiences or those of people close to us. Yet we often tend to see health as purely an individual responsibility, said Dr. Jaskiewicz.

“This suggests that poor health outcomes reflect personal failure. In fact, historical, economic and environmental systems play a major role in shaping our health,” said Dr. Jaskiewicz, who was drawn to this topic because of her belief that it’s essential to highlight how structural inequalities, not just individual choices, drive many of the health disparities we see today.

“In my own research, I’ve found that exposure to racially motivated hate crimes in one’s area of residence is associated with worse birth outcomes for African American infants. This is one example of how deeply these systemic issues can affect even the earliest stages of life,” she said.

Other examples of factors contributing to health disparities include exposure to environmental hazards, such as when people live or work in areas with poor air or water quality, and medical mistrust rooted in a history of mistreatment, she said.

“It can sometimes feel disheartening to look at the statistics around health disparities. But I hope participants of this talk walk away understanding that we’re not powerless and there are real policy tools available to address these inequities,” said Dr. Jaskiewicz.

For the final presentation of the day, Joan A. Grossman, Ph.D., RD, professor of health and human performance at Scranton, will present “The Power of Small Changes: Food, Activity and Quality of Life.”

During this informative session, participants will discover how food choices impact body weight. Dr. Grossman, a registered dietitian/nutritionist, will help participants gain an understanding of how small changes in daily activity can improve a person’s quality of life and increase their longevity for lifelong good habits.
